usefull info... thanks :thumbsup:
 

tell you wat guys, why dun u just use the wakeboarding booth as a base of sorts to meet or let ppl know u r there. Most probably ill be there all the time so if someone comes and lets me know who they are, ill jus direct them to the rest. if im not there, there should be someone who can direct u to me (this applies for Sat only).

2day i met the pros, models and went to scope out the place. the place is really long and big so will be quite hard to meet. Also i realized taking some shots 2day is that u really need a fast & long lens otherwise u can't catch them in flight...then again, 2days weather was really bad...

would love to shoot with you guys and get some tips as im still a super newbie and would really like to learn :)

Your long lens mean 200mm, 300mm, 400mm or longer?

From my last year shot record .... 200mm + TC1.7

I know 2 of you..;p
 

I'll be there on Sunday so those of you going on Saturday, please post any useful advice here. I imagine you will need at least 200mm+ to get some nice closely cropped action.

Look out for me on Sunday - English guy with D2X and 70-200 + 1.7TC. Will probably be a group of us so come over and say hey.
 

For everyone's benefit, here is the situation just now when I went to Bedok Reservoir to do some recce.

There are still some final touch-ups in progress. Photo is a little blur as it was hand held, did not bring my tripod.
 

OK. For those who are coming from Bishan, there is a new SBS service 59 (commencing from 23 Oct., Sunday) that will bring you to Bedok Reservoir for the event. Please refer to the signage below.
